Rod Fanni: Expected to be out for up to four weeks after breaking his toe
Marseille have been dealt an untimely blow by the news that Rod Fanni is to be sidelined for four weeks with a foot injury.
The defender suffered a broken toe during Tuesday's UEFA Champions League clash with Arsenal.
He was able to complete the full 90 minutes at Emirates Stadium, but complained of having a sore toe at the end of a 0-0 draw.
He was sent for medical tests and scans have revealed that he has suffered a fracture.
Fanni is now set to sit out a number of important fixtures, handing coach Didier Deschamps an unwelcome selection dilemma.
It is expected that the France international will miss a number of domestic games, including a crunch clash with Paris St Germain on 26th November.
The 29-year-old will also sit out crucial European dates with Olympiakos and Borussia Dortmund.
